Lemon-ginger lemonade

Lemonade is considered a product of childhood for a reason. It is difficult to find a person who does not know about this refreshing drink. Especially in the summer heat, it’s nice to know that there is a jug of cool, pleasant-tasting water in the refrigerator. But you don’t have to buy it in the store; it’s not difficult to make lemonade at home, and the benefits will be much greater.

A healthy, very tasty homemade drink is prepared not only with lemon and lime, but also root vegetables are often added. Ginger is good for refreshing water. This is a very useful plant. It enriches the human body with vitamins and amino acids. The root, if used fresh, has a very pleasant, slightly pungent taste. Regular consumption of drinks with ginger root, without abuse:

actively burns fat;
stimulates performance;
gives extra energy.

In summer, ginger lemonade is refreshing, and on winter evenings it warms, because you can drink it hot. Preparing the drink at home is not expensive: a small amount of inexpensive ingredients takes little time. Everyone can choose the recipe to their taste.

What do you need for syrup?

water 250 ml;
ginger 250 g;
sugar 200 g;
lemon 1 slice.

What do you need for lemonade?

syrup to taste;
lemon 1 pc.;
water 500 ml.

What to do?

Let's start by preparing the syrup, since it is the basis for this recipe. It is better to prepare the ginger in advance so as not to miss the moment when it needs to be added to the syrup. We recommend grating it: this will release more juice, without the need to peel the root.
Mix sugar with cold water and place on medium heat. We wait for the sugar to completely dissolve and, as soon as the syrup begins to boil, reduce the heat to minimum.
Add grated ginger to the syrup and cook the mixture for about 20 minutes.
Now the syrup needs to be filtered and cooled. This preparation will be enough for about a week and a half of daily preparation of lemonade: this is exactly how long the syrup will be stored if you do not close it in sterile jars.
Now you need to squeeze the juice of one lemon into clean water. What makes this recipe convenient is that you can immediately pour the water into glasses and squeeze the juice directly into them. Don't forget the little microwave and rolling trick to increase the amount of juice you squeeze out.
All that remains is to pour the syrup into glasses, add ice and serve!

The syrup can be stored for months if you seal it in sterilized, airtight jars like pickles.
